THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Due to the force of gravity objects fall. The gravitational force is invisible to our eyes. Similarly, there are innumerable divine forces operating in this Universe. You must not deny them just because you cannot see them. Only the power of the Divine enables you to speak, see, move and think. All the power of the sense organs are derived from the Divine. In conceit, you may imagine that you are the doer. This is the result of ignorance and folly. Ask the question, what is responsible for existence? The answer is Divinity. Without faith in the Divine, nothing can be achieved. There is no need to seek a reason for this faith – Faith has no season or reason, it is like the love of a child for the mother. The child loves its mother for the sole reason that she is its mother. Develop such confidence and firm faith, you can realize God. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Ch 8, June 15, 1989)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
When Krishna was placed in the weighing scale, Rukmini brought one Tulasi leaf and said, "One may offer a leaf, a flower, fruit, or even just water to God. I offer this Tulasi leaf to You. If it is true that you rescue the person devoted to You, I pray, let this leaf of Tulasi balance Your weight." The sanctity of sacred thoughts and acts are not understood by many. Rukmini's offering was filled with devout feeling, so it equaled the weight of Lord Krishna, who is the very Lord of the Universe. Rukmini accomplished this feat through her selfless devotion. What is the significance in the offering of a leaf? Body (deha) is a leaf (patram) with three attributes of Satva, Rajas and Tamas. Heart (Hrudaya) is a flower (pushpam). The flower of the heart is pure and sacred. From this flower comes the fruit, mind with its sweet juice. You must offer this to God. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 3, June 30, 1996)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
